Perfection

Total perfection. This is what today’s society expects. What we expect. Perfect hair, perfect clothes, perfect day, perfect house, perfect plans, perfect partner, perfect… Where does it stop?! With you. With me. Us.

The beautiful thing about perfection? It doesn’t exist. I’m not perfect, my hair isn’t perfect, my clothes (let’s be honest, are terrible) aren’t perfect, life isn’t perfect, nothing’s perfect. We should learn to accept and love the imperfections. Sure, a bunch of times imperfections are annoying. (The persistant coughing your co-worker does, the mess left on the table, the car won’t start, the dinner meat went bad…) But lately I’ve been finding a lot of great in imperfections. I’ve been learning from imperfections. Because I don’t need to be perfect. And I no longer want to be perfect. (How stressful would that be?) Let’s choose to just be… Totally imperfect.
